    Hi everyone,

    I received a call this morning from Dee’s daughter and she told me Dee had a stroke last week and is in the hospital. They expect her to be there at least another week. She’s having some difficulty speaking but her daughter said that seems to be improving daily. They are continuing her thalidomide but are spending most of their time putting out fires as they pop up due to her low platelets. If you think of her, you might pray for strength for the family and grace for her. I’ll let you know if I learn anymore later. Her daughter said she’d keep me posted.

    Hi Terri,

    Added prayer is always appreciated. I have another call into Dee’s family trying to find out how she’s doing and if she can have visitors but I haven’t heard back from them. I’m hoping tomorrow. I was wanting to try and visit her in the hospital this week. I’ll pass on any info they give me.

    Hi everyone,

    I just received a call from Dee’s husband. Dee has transformed to AML and is being sent home tomorrow from the hospital. She is being set up with hospice at home. Her husband, Jerry, said she is fairly non-responsive right now. Please pray for grace for this family over the next week. From conversations I’ve had with Dee I believe her to be a christian. He asked me to let you all know and ask you to pray for her. I’ll let you know when/if he calls me again.

    My prayers for Dee and her family. I am so sorry – I always appreciated her support and the only question I have now is – WHY???????? She is a very sweet lady.
